Jackie,
I love reading your blog – you really seem to “get it” with your students through your reflections. Did you ask your students if they’ve had that experience? It’s so important to validate the reality that learning occurs anywhere, at anytime.
Just think of all the learning that occurred for your students, over Christmas vacation! We want our kids to have that same excitement about learning as we do. Is it possible?

Break isn’t over yet Karen, so I haven’t had a chance to ask them yet. I’m thinking of asking “what did you learn?” and “how did you learn it?” along with your previous suggestion into a focused free write to start each class on Monday. Thanks for the great ideas!
